As of early 2024, there are 34 provinces of Afghanistan. Some have, from time to time, been split or merged, typically to create a better ethnic balance. Kabul, sited in Kabul Province, is the national capital. There are several formal or informal regional groupings of provinces. Geographically, the country tends to split into north, south, east and west quadrants.
